Kingz Pillar of the Community Netherlands 626 Posts	Posted 12/17/2010 2:10 pm I don't have a catalogue about coins from before 1700, so could you guys help me please? I know that I should look between the three fleur-de-lys underneath France, it looks like a sword/dagger. And it looks like the date says 1657/2. All information is highly appreciated Moved to World Coins forum - Sap Report this Post to the Staff

Pertinax Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2133 Posts	Posted 12/17/2010 4:51 pm It certainly is a Liard. There should be a capital letter above the bottom fleur-de-lys which will indicate the mint that made it. I would grade this coin as Poor, and worth about $3 to $5 depending on the mint.

Kingz Pillar of the Community Netherlands 626 Posts	Posted 12/17/2010 6:11 pm I think it's an E, because you can see the bottom leg (so it can't be an A, and I don't think it's a C either... other than that I have no idea) But I bought it for €0,25 at a bargain bin so what the heck Report this Post to the Staff
Pertinax Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2133 Posts	Posted 12/17/2010 6:34 pm Kingz, Well, you got a bargain. E (Tours) was the letter that came into my mind from the photo, though I wondered about B too. Report this Post to the Staff

Kingz Pillar of the Community Netherlands 626 Posts	Posted 12/18/2010 12:37 pm Yes €0,25 is a bargain for any old coin (even though the quality is really poor), I could not leave it for that...! And thanks for the info guys, much appreciated! Report this Post to the Staff
